Harpsichord music on the Soundboard record label

[This site now incorporates the Soundboard-Records website.
Click for Sheet Music, below.]

All my recordings prior to 2018 are available for download, track by track,
from the usual media outlets.

However, the most recent releases are only available as CDs, as the
sound quality is far more realistic and therefore more enjoyable.
Also, I take great care in the
preparation of informative booklet notes. (The notes for Bach’s
Well-tempered Clavier have prompted high praise in their own right.)
CDs also make an attractive and durable gift!

Sheet Music - Arrangement of Bach’s Chaconne in D minor

Many of today’s leading harpsichordists have made
their own arrangements of this mighty piece. I first heard
such a performance when given by Gustav Leonhardt in 1986.
The harpsichord is particularly effective in conveying its
mood and stature, and it presents the player with a single
movement more than ten minutes long, which is a rarity in
the harpsichord repertoire.

My own arrangement for the harpsichord of the Chaconne
(the concluding movement of Bach’s Partita No. 2 in
D minor for solo violin)
is available to download as sheet music from
www.devinemusic.co.uk.

Part of Chaconne in D minor (arr. Booth from violin Partita) by Bach.

Here are the first few bars:

It can be heard in its entirety on the CD Bach by Arrangement
and also - transposed down to the more sombre key of A minor - on
Dark Harpsichord Music, above.
